The fission product Ba/sup 140/ is often used as a standard in fission yield determinations. A method is presented for this determination from the thermal neutron fission of U/sup 235/ The fission yield of Ba/sup 140/ was found by this method to be 6,36 plus or minus 0.12%, which agrees well with previously attalned values.
